For this case, the first thing we must do is define a variable.
We have then:
x: unknown number
We now write the equation that models the problem:
From here, we clear the value of x.
We multiply both sides of the equation by 2:
We subtract 30 on both sides of the equation:
Answer:
The value of the unknown number is given by:
Answer:
13 11/12.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we multiply 1/4 and 2/3 with it's least common denominator, 12. Now, we have 6 3/12 and 7 8/12. We now add this together to get the sum of 13 11/12.
Answer:
$36
Step-by-step explanation:
Jim worked from 8am - 2 pm , which is 6 hours
Woody worked form 10am - 2pm, which is 4 hours
If we take the total time (4+6 = 10) and divide the amount they got, we have:
$60/10 = $6 per hour worked
Since Jim worked 6 hours, he will be paid 6 * 6 = $36
The rest, 60 - 36 = $24 would be paid to Woody (he worked less).
Jim's fair share of earning is $36
percent of water is: 32/80*100= 40%
